For periods of 3 months or longer
N Drain and clean the fuel tank in a
well ventilated area.
N Dispose of fuel properly in
accordance with local
environmental requirements.
N Run the engine until the carburetor
is dry – this helps prevent the
carburetor diaphragms sticking
together.
N Remove, clean and inspect the
cutting attachment.
N Thoroughly clean the machine – pay
special attention to the cylinder fins
and air filter.
N Store the machine in a dry and
secure location – out of the reach of
children and other unauthorized
persons.
N Use a sharpening file (special
accessory) to sharpen dull cutting
attachments. In case of more
serious wear or nicks: Resharpen
with a grinder or have the work done
by a dealer – STIHL recommends a
STIHL servicing dealer.
N Resharpen frequently, take away as
little material as possible: two or
three strokes of the file are usually
enough.
N Resharpen the cutters (1) uniformly
– do not alter the contour or the
parent blade (2) in any way.
See cutting attachment packaging for
additional sharpening instructions.
Balancing
N After resharpening about 5 times,
check the cutting attachment for
out-of-balance on a STIHL balancer
(special accessory) or have it
checked by a dealer and re-
balanced as necessary – STIHL
recommends a STIHL servicing
dealer.
